- Description
- The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Chicago District issues a Pre-solicitation Notice for the Red Mill Pond Section 506, Great Lakes Fisheries & Ecosystem and County Park in LaPorte, Indiana. The Contractor will be responsible for providing all of the necessary facilities, plants, labor, transportation, materials and equipment to perform the following: A new channel would be excavated and sculpted to pass flow from the pond to Little Calumet River. This also includes features such as grade control riffles, temporary erosion control features, and appropriate woody debris and vegetation for stabilization. The length of the new stream channels will be about 450-feet in length. A notched weir structure across the pond where a beaver dam currently sits would be constructed. This structure would ensure that current water levels and fluctuations are maintained. This structure would consist of a sheet pile wall that would be covered in glacial stone, woody debris and/or vegetation to make it look more natural. The small notch would allow a continuous flow down through the created stream channel. The length of the control structure is about 320-feet. Finally, the restoration of native vegetation communities in any area that is directly affected by the dam modification, stream channel formation and water draw down would be implemented. Appropriate vegetation communities would be planted according to hydrology. These are anticipated to be marsh, wet meadow and wet forest type communities. The total area affected is about 4-acres. Existing metal culverts would be replaced with 36" RCP pipe that would allow vehicles and people to walk the path without fording these small seep streams. By replacing the culvert, stream channel connectivity, hydrology and hydraulics would be restored. Appropriate native seep vegetation would be planted as well. This measure also ensures seeps would remain stable after the dam is bypassed. The classification code for this procurement is North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) 237990, with a business size standard of $33.5M. COMPETITION IS UNRESTRICTED TO BUSINESS SIZE. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers intends to award a firm-fixed price construction contract. The estimated price range for this project is between $500,000 and $1,000,000. Interested Contractors can download the Request for Proposal package from Internet Site www.fbo.gov on or about August 7, 2009. The due date for proposals will be on September 8, 2009 at 4:00 p.m. Central Time Zone. Requests made by telephone, fax or e-mail will not be honored. The point of contact is Kim M. Beard, (312) 846-5378 and fax (312) 886-5475. The project specification files are Portable Document Format (PDF) files and can be viewed, navigated or printed using Adobe Acrobat Reader.
